(intro) C G Am Em7 F C G

 C                          G
This is what I look like today
         Am                        Em7
And I’m trying not to pull out my hair
      F                               C                             G
I’m trying hard to grow it but I’m far too shy to show it back there
      C                    G
That’s probably why I like wearing hats
         Am                        Em7
There’s no denying I’m deferring the facts
F                        C
Avoiding confrontation lacks tact in a situation
G                  Em7
Behind every line is a lesson yet to learn

Dm          G            C                      Am     A7
But if you ask me, the feeling that I’m feeling is overwhelming
    Dm                G                    C6      C
And oh, it goes to show, I’ve so much to know

  C                        G
I wrote this for my prettiest friend
        Am                     Em7
But while trying not to prove that I care
F                  C                  G
Trying not to make all my moves in one motion and scare her away
     C                          G
Well she can't see she's making me crazy now
  Am                        Em7
I don't believe she knows she's amazing how
         F                  C
She has me holding my breath, so I’d never guess
         G                  Em7
That I’m a none such unsuitable, suited for her

Dm          G            C                        Am
But if you ask me, the feeling that I’m feeling is complimentary
    Dm               G           C                      Am
And oh, it goes to show, the moral of the story is boy loves girl
             Dm                     G                  C6        C
And oh-whoa love, the way that it unfolds is yet to be told

(intro) C G Am Em7 F C G

             Am            Em7                 F                       C
I know that I should be brave, 'cause even pretty can be seen by the blind
         Am            Em7            F                            G
I know that I cannot wait, until the day we finally learn how to find each other,
         G
Redefining open minds

Dm          G              C                      Am     A7
And if you ask me, the feeling that I’m feeling is overjoyed
           Dm                 G
And it's golden; it goes to show then,
     C                           Am     A7
The ending of this song should be left alone
     Dm                   G                      C6       C
And whoa-oh love, the way it unfolds is yet to be told
